Advantages of Limited Liability Partnership

Separate Legal Entity:

  • LLP is considered a separate legal entity and artificial judicial person as per the Act. Being an artificial judicial person, LLP can buy its own property and incur its own debts. Partners of the LLP have liability limited to their capital for debts of the LLP.

Perpetual Succession:

  • Since LLP is considered as artificial judicial person, its existence is not affected by death, retirement or any other kind of departure of its partners. LLP continues its existence unless it is legally dissolved as per the provisions of Law.

Lesser Compliances:

  • Auditing of books of accounts is not required if LLP has turnover of less than Rs. 40 lakhs or capital contribution of less than Rs. 25 lakhs. This saves cost and efforts of LLPs and its ideal for small businesses or new startups.

Transferability:

  • Interest in LLP can be easily transferred by introducing new Designated Partner in LLP. LLP is a separate legal entity and changing a Designated Partner does not affect its existence.

Ownership of Property:

  • Being an artificial judicial person LLP can buy property in its own name. The LLP is the owner of the property and partner cannot claim this property.

Limited Liability:

  • Limited Liability of its Partners is one of the most important advantages of LLP. Unlike Partnership Firm or Proprietorship, liability of partner in respect of LLP’s debts is limited.

Capacity to sue and be sued:

  • LLP is an artificial judicial person. Just like a person initiates legal proceedings against another person, LLP can also initiate legal proceedings against another person, Company or LLP.

Multiple Relationships:

  • A person can be a partner, employee or creditor of a LLP. There are different contracts with the same person in different capacities.
